From: Matthew Wilcox <willy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
DAX relies on the get_block function either zeroing newly allocated blocks
before they're findable by subsequent calls to get_block, or marking newly
allocated blocks as unwritten. ext4_get_block() cannot create unwritten
extents, but ext4_get_block_write() can.
